August Adventures at HQ

Lucy Thomson. 14 August 2026

A little end-of-week recap from HQ đź’™ We had a fabulous start to the week when our lovely neighbours at COOKI very kindly gifted us some iced coffees for our Monday morning classes. The perfect little addition to a busy Monday at HQ. There are loads of new things waiting for you on the app this week too, including new recipes and on-demand sessions to help you keep moving while you’re away or training from home. 

We also had a surprise visit from our friend Mel, who some of you will remember from our 6 am team. She was home visiting, so it was really lovely to have a little catch up with her.

On Wednesday evening, we took to the hills in the hope of seeing the solar eclipse. We didn’t quite come full circle, literally, but we had such a good laugh. Thank you for always being up for these little ideas and for making HQ such a fun place to be. It was also my turn to be assessed on the coaching floor this week. Something we feel really passionate about is ensuring that all of our coaches sing from the same hymn sheet. We all have our own personalities and ways of coaching, but it’s important that the standard across HQ always remains the same. There is always room to learn, improve and grow, and that applies to every one of us. 


 We finished the week by celebrating Catriona’s final workout before becoming a bride next week. We are so excited for her and can’t wait to see all the beautiful photos.

Coach Claire will be on the floor with you tomorrow morning and is really looking forward to seeing so many of your faces. 


Thank you again for making it another busy and brilliant week at HQ. We hope you’ve had a good one and that your cup is feeling full or that you have something to look forward to this weekend that will help fill it back up. 

There may be some mixed emotions as we reach the final days of the summer holidays, but we hope you’ve managed to enjoy them in whatever way, shape or form that has looked like for you 💙
